Canadian singer-songwriter Dave Gunning and Australian artist Claire Anne Taylor are set to perform for the autumn tour.
Festival producer Eleanor Rigden said the tour offered more than just a rare opportunity for towns to access a high standard of music.
“People tell us that they feel great after a night in their local hall,” she said.
“Folks can catch up with people they might not have seen in a long time. Young people are starting to make the move back out of cities to head home. Working adults are realising community connections can help them withstand the pressures of a busy life. Children are growing up together in these community spaces.
“There’s a lot of reunions happening in these Halls. Memories are coming back to life.”
Ms Ridgen said tickets are now available for $20 at www.festivalofsmallhalls.com.
